98. Secret
With a roar like thunder, behind me, Yuan Lu Zhi's body collapsed like a landslide. And the Yuwang Divine Sword has disappeared from my hands, restoring the body of the Jade Void Sword.
I felt a burning pain in my skin, and then I remembered that they had said that the blood of the Yaki Orochi was strongly corrosive. I just pierced my heart, and I will inevitably be stained with his blood.
I stopped flying and let my body fall into the sea. The icy sea water quickly cooled my skin, and although the heat dissipated, it did not relieve my pain in the slightest.
I tried to paddle to the surface, but I found that I couldn't move my limbs at all, and I had to slowly sink to the bottom of the sea in an increasingly strong suffocation.
Am I going to drown? I didn't expect it to be this way of dying. At least you can save the whole body.
But not necessarily. I'm afraid my skin has already festered. Even if it weren't, it would be impossible for the aquarists in the sea to spare my corpse. It is inevitable that he will be buried in the belly of the fish.
The battle on the beach in Psionic is not over yet. Isn't the serpent dead? It doesn't seem to be. The dimming light and shadow were motionless. Not far from him, there were four people fighting around a small snake......
A familiar dragon shadow flew over me. The long dragon's tail flicked down, plunged into the water, grabbed me by the waist, and lifted me out of the water.
The dragon shadow slowly turned into a human form and held me in his arms. I felt a strong squeeze in my chest, a few hard blows on my back, and several mouthfuls of salty seawater, and I finally gasped for breath.
I opened my eyes and saw Ao Zhen's pale and beautiful face. "Nezha, why don't you have water beads?" She asked.
"Where else do I want this?" I looked down and saw the ugly scar on Ao Zhen's thigh, "You are so badly injured, you still have to come out......"
"Do you think I've figured it out? If I don't come out, you and Airi will be dead by this time! ”
I looked in the direction of the castle, but found it seven or eight hundred feet away. It turned out that I was carried so far away by the waters of the low tide.
The battle over there is over. On the sloping tidal flats lie the corpses of two large snakes, one large and one small.
Ao Zhen carried me and flew back to the castle. When I landed, my body went limp, and Ao Zhen couldn't stand at all because of a leg injury, and both of them fell to the ground.
Shinichi and Aoi hurriedly ran over to help us. When we stumbled to the huge corpse of Yuan Lu Zhi, we saw Airi holding a sword and looking at it in a daze. There was obviously a gap on the top of the Heavenly Feather Feather Slash, which was still shining with purple light.
I saw that the huge corpse was gradually shrinking until it was more than three feet long. Not far away, the carcass of another small snake that had been cut in two was also reduced to the size of a zhang.
"Princess," said Kokosakura, "dissect it!" Maybe there's another Sky Cloud Sword inside! ”
Airi cut the snake's tail one by one, but there was no sword in sight, only eight white dragon tendons.
"Sister Nezha," said Airi, "you pull out the dragon tendons!" ”
"Keep it for yourself, princess!" I said, "Even if you don't have the Heavenly Cloud Sword, it's good to have dragon tendons!" ”
Airi smiled, "I have no land, and I have no people. What's the use of having the Sky Cloud Sword? The big snake of Yaqi was originally fighting for his sister, but the little sister was just helping. The dragon tendon should be owned by my sister. ”
I'll take a look at Ao Zhen. She nodded, "The dragon tendons of the Yaqi Great Snake are a good thing!" After refining, it is a high-grade magic weapon. Don't be in vain. ”
I pierced the serpent's tail with my short sword, revealing the white tendons, and pulled it out. I saw that the dragon tendons were white all over, and the head and tail were divided into eight forks, which could be long or short, and extremely tough, which was really a good thing.
"Oops! Nezha, your clothes! Aoi exclaimed.
I've just noticed that my clothes are torn in multiple places and are starting to peel off piece by piece. Now the flesh is exposed everywhere, and even the embarrassing places such as chest, abdomen, and buttocks have large and small holes.
"Nezha, and your face, your skin."
The burning pain on the surface of the body has never been relieved. I couldn't see my face, but I had patches of rashes on my hands and thighs. And his head was dizzy for a while.
"Nezha, go back to the room!" Ao Zhen shouted.
I barely flew to the huge window of the castle. When the villagers and elders saw me, they bowed down again.
"It's all right!" I said, "I'm going to rest." "Walk among them. I didn't get them up, lest they see that I was now almost naked.
I walked into the room, the last of my clothes scattered all over the floor. My long-sleeved sweater, waistcoat and shorts, along with my corset and boots underneath, were all in vain.
I couldn't hold on any longer, so I collapsed on the couch and passed out.
When I woke up again, it was already a day and a night later.
I was naked and covered with blisters of all sizes, and the pain was unbearable. Ao Zhen and Airi stayed by my side.
"Last night, after we killed two snakes, one big and one small, the army of the Whale Sea Dragon Palace arrived. They eliminated the four remaining large snakes. But," Ao Zhen said, "Nezha, I'm sorry, I couldn't keep your dragon tendons. It was given away by the Whale Sea Dragon Palace. They didn't say that everything in the Whale Sea belonged to their Whale Sea Dragon Palace. ”
"It's okay!" I smiled and took her hand, "What is a dragon tendon?" As long as you're okay! ”
Ao Zhen took out a bottle of ointment, "They are still a bright step, leaving a bottle of ointment to treat the burns on your skin." She handed the medicine to me, "I have already applied it for you today, and in the future, let Aoi help you apply it all over your body once a day, and you can be cured in twenty days." ”
"I can't be with you anymore. The fourth cousin is going to take me to the Sea Dragon Palace to heal the wound on my leg. If it is not treated promptly, it may be difficult to recover from the wound. Then you'd have to cut off the leg by the roots. ”
"Cut it off by the roots!" I was shocked.
She smiled, "Don't be like that. Dragons' legs are cut off, and they can be regenerated. But it takes a long time, at least twenty years, and it will be ugly when it first grows. ”
"Then you'd better hurry up!" I say. "Aren't we going to see each other again?"
Ao Zhen left. I continued to spend two days in a groggy state. Three days later, one night, a shuttle crept down the hillside at the top of the castle and picked us all up.
The tide has receded, and Sado is back as a whole island. But the only ground between the two mountains is in ruins. Whether the islanders who survived the catastrophe will survive the ensuing plague outbreak remains to be seen.
Dewa also experienced a catastrophe. From the central square of the academy, the atrium to the training ground, there are traces of fighting.
From the mouths of the students who returned to school two days ago, we learned the general situation. Ten days ago, about 20 ninjas infiltrated Dewa and hunted down Princess Airi and the Susa people. ransacked the campus after finding nothing. The 18 teachers who stayed behind fought back and killed most of them. The rest fled wounded.
However, the Dewa Academy also suffered heavy losses. Seven of the eighteen teachers were martyred, including the beautiful Chiyo-sensei who led the smart class of Class B. Six people were seriously injured. Both President Mori and Professor Hara were seriously injured.
The training ground outside the infirmary has been converted into a makeshift hospital. Although the blood poison on my body had not healed, I still barely supported my sick body, and I went to visit Kumi Hara who was lying on the sickbed with Airi as soon as possible.
Kumi Hara's ribs were almost completely broken, and her limbs were broken into several sections, and she lay there unable to move.
I was dressed in a black robe and my face was covered with a black veil. Because I was worried that the sores on my body would contaminate the teacher, I sat down a little further away from her.
Airi burst into tears when she saw her like this. Kumi Hara smiled instead, "What are you crying about?" My good girl. See you come back in its entirety. And the teacher is still alive, and he doesn't miss a single arm or leg. Isn't it supposed to be happy? ”
She looked at me again, "Nezha, what's wrong with you?" Why not. ”
Airi replied for me: "Nezha killed the Yaqi Orochi in Sado, and his body was stained with the blood of Yuanlu Zhi, and the sores and poison broke out. I was afraid of getting contaminated with the teacher, so I didn't dare to come over. ”
"That's amazing!" Kumi Hara smiled, "Is there a cure?" ”
"Yes." I replied, "The Whale Sea Dragon Palace left a bottle of ointment, which is said to guarantee that the student will be cured within twenty days. ”
"That's good." Yuan Kumi smiled with relief, "When Nezha recovers from his illness, you must tell me what happened." ”
"Ari," she said, "there is something I must tell you. I got news from Yamato. They have investigated Yui's true identity. Her surname is Susa, and her name is Susa Yui. ”
